255/50x18 tires on std rims
Just wondering if anyone has fitted this size to standard 8x18 alloys, and if so did they foul, did you need spacers and if so how much?
From my calcs they will fit if lucky but more than likely require 10mm or 15mm spacers for safety?
Just seems to be many more tyres available in this size over here in the UK than 245's......
Best regards David

I have standard 18" RX rims (UK 03MY type) which I believe have 38mm offset....so seems I might need small spacers....as yours are 1/4" wider on the inner rim than mine and your using 15mm spacers...I might get away with just 5 or 10 spacers? Hmmm....thats quite good news.
Cheers matey.
